Novel submission

final exam review

HW review for the final

      So, the class started off a little noisy, until Ms. Nakada came in. We began doing quote and question of the week. The quote was "Be kind to everybody, make art, and fight the power." Colson Whitehead. The question was, should students erase / change things in class when the teacher is out.

After that, Ms. Nakada started talking about how she wants us to be a better student coming in and going out  and improving on how we act. Then, Ms. Nakada told everyone to take out our novel submissions and she told us how it should be stapled. Ms. Nakada said that we need to start planning ahead because teachers are not going to do things for you.

Michael was not listening, so Ms. Nakada told him to go to Mr. Bangert's room.

Ms. Nakada told us to take out our English notebooks and she told which pages we should refer to for the final exam. We started to take notes on the final exam review. We had to chose one quote or question to discuss.

We needed to know: the elements of plot, we needed to know the five steps to the writing process.

Ms. Nakada started to talk about how, even if Allyson's novel was short, she enjoyed it very much.

Ms. Nakada said we to write the rhyme scheme, metaphor and she might drop in an allusion. We also need to review The Outsiders book vs movie. We only had about three more minutes till the bell had rang and it was a Tuesday so I had to go. Bye, and also were all going to make sure our novel submissions are done.
